- Bad Sector, stating the number of bytes that get bad sector in one drive (if 0 (zero) bytes of hard disk means you are healthy and the blade is greater than 0 (zero) then your existing hard disk Bad Sector her so beware because the presence of bad sectors possibility of data corruption can occur at any time)
